    I am selling a set of VB pricking irons 9spi. 10tooth and 2 tooth. Retail for $250 selling for $205 shipped in the US. Always used on safe work surface. Perfect working condition. I have switched to 10spi for all my smaller goods so no longer need these. thanks

    Can you link me to any of these leathers through taobao? Nothing is coming up when I do a search thank you

    Hidehouse has sent me sample swatches before and they had pretty much ever color you could imagine in multiple types of leather. https://hidehouse.com/products/index.html?Category=HBAG&Product_ID=353 Also you can get calfskin in a pretty wide variety of colors. Is there a certain type of leather in particular you are looking to work with? Who is the bag maker that has the leather you like and I can probably point you in the direction of something very similar.

    Yes I have ordered from them a few times. Jerome usually responds fairly quickly but there was one time during a order where he took over a week or so. I think a lot of it depends on how many trade shows are going on and how busy he is. There really isn't a minimum but he has recommended buying around 8 skins or more since shipping to the US for a skin or 2 wouldn't be very cost effective.

    I have done 11spi. Not sure I would even want to attempt 12
  10. lilwaysleather
    Yes the $6 dollar shipping is awesome. Especially for contact cement which normally has very high shipping rates.

    Awesome. Have ordered from you a few times. What is the benefit of ordering the "mixing black" compared to ordering just the black which could be used on its own or mixed. thanks
  12. lilwaysleather
    Sold??
  13. lilwaysleather
    Oh yeah that is the same. Thanks for the link. It looks like a few people asked about it in that thread and he hasn't gotten back yet. Also assuming its the same one in his pictures the cutting area looks bigger than I thought based on the Elfita pictures. Couldn't find the exact dimensions

    Im assuming the weaver hand operated press is heavier duty and the Lucris as well but for 1/4th the price I was wondering if anyone has used this. I make mostly small items at the moment so this seems like it could do the job. Would love to hear any feedback from someone who has tried this machine.

    I pierce it the same way you described for the tiger thread, sometimes twice. Its not as easy to pierce because of the round profile but the process is the same.

    Haven't done any piping yet. Did you put some type of wire or tube in between the leather for it or just folded the piece of leather on its own. Lookin good
